For 4 servings
Preheat oven and prepare the baking dish. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 2-quart casserole dish or a 9x9 inch baking pan.
Sauté the aromatics and franks. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the sliced hot dogs and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned.
Combine the ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, add the cans of pork and beans, ketchup, packed brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until the sauce is well combined. Gently fold in the cooked onions and hot dogs.
Bake the casserole. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, until the sauce is bubbly and the edges are slightly caramelized.
Rest and serve. Carefully remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the sauce to thicken slightly. Serve warm.
